A. L. Anderson, the Snake River
cattleman is up from the ranch
near Starrh's Ferry. This new
firm of stockgrowers, Anderson e.
Bennett, began business last month
having purchased their cattle on
the south side of Snake river, and
their stock being used to the range
has wintered as well as usual. Their
iron and stock is known. as the
"Trefoil" outfit.
The season of 1889 will be the
most prosperous one for miners had
in the territory for many years, both
in quartz and placers. A large
number of immigrants from the
east will settle on the rich and ex-
tensive desert lands being reclaim
ed by the many large canals; the
live stock interests were never more
encouraging at this season of the
year, and all things considered,
Idaho has a brighter future than
any of her sister territories.
y. w. Burns, of this city, has been
on an extended trip to the cattle
ranges on Snake liver, says the
Haley Inter-Idaho. He brings
the gratifying assurance that the
loss of stock during the past severe
weather will not reach half that was
predicted. He says that from
American Falls to the mouth of the
Boise river there have been all win
ter and are now about 10000 head
of cattle, and of this number he is
confident that 3 per cent will cover
the entire loss, and the most of
these have died from eating poison
ed weeds recently. The grass is
now springiug up rapidly, and no
further fears need be entertained
for stock. Mr.. Burns is one of our
heavy cattle owners, and is enthu-
siastic in praise of the advantages
of the ranges along the great Snake
river.

ERROR IN THE LAW,
A Mistake Discovered in a Section
Of tho Intarstata Coumerca hin

A Mistake Discovered in a Section
of the Interstate Commerce Bill.
From Washington Letter 10 the Baltimore
american.
Senator Cullom, the author of the inter-
state commerce bill in the Senate, was
asked to-day by the American GORE
spondent about the following statement
that an error has been discovered in the
enrolling of the interstate commerce biz.
"Itwas learned to-day from an authori.
tative source that by clerical error one
section of the interstate commerce bill
was enacted in form very different from
that intended. The error was one OF
| transposition of clauses. In the bill, as
| finally agreed upon in the conference,
there was the following:
"'Nothing in this act shall be con-
strued TO prohibit the issuance OF mileage,
excursion or communication passenger
| tickets
lin the final copying and revision of
the bill two clauses we're transferred, 80
that this revision reads as follows
Nothing IN this act shall apply to the
Issuance OF mileage, excursion or COM
mutation passenger tlckets.'v
After he had read the statement the
Senator said that he did not see that the
mistake would make any material diff
ference in the law. II the law was read
over carefully one would see that the
mileage, excursion and Communication
tickets were excepted. In talking about
the pass question, Senator Cullom
said he did not think II could apply TO
newspaper passes, because they were
given in nearly every instance in pay
ment for advertising done by the papers
for the road. "My wife was strongly in
favor OF the bill" said the Senator, until
the night before It was signed. She had
never heard OF the clause referring 10
passes until some one In our cOEversa-
tlon at home mentioned that II the bin
became law she could not longer ride
on pass. 'Is that SOP she said. Whom
/ told her It was che exclaimed; "Thcn

CLEVELAND's OPPONENTS.
The Presidential Ticket They Are
Said to Have Agreed Upon.

Washington Letter 10 the Baltimore Herald.
The opponents of President Cleveland
among the Democratic leaders have prac-
tically agreed upon the ticket they will
support for nomination In the next ma
tional convention. 1t is to be Hill, Of
New York, for President, and Stevenson,
of Illinois, for Vice President. AS first
Assistant Postmaster General Stevenson
mas won the sincere admiration and con-
tidence of that element OF Democracy
which believes that political victory
is barren without the spOils. He has
made 1t rule to put in a Democrat in
every office at his disposal worth having.
He has not been at all hvpocritical,
either, about his policy. He has frankly
aVOwed his belief in the doctrine that
Ito the VictOrs belong the spOils." He
says that the only exceptions made by
him have been in very small post offices
established for the convenience of q
neigh borhood. In some of these it has
not been practicable to get q Democrat,
either because there WAS no Democrat
who would accept or because none of
that political cast reside at the post office,
but he makes this admission as il he felt
disposed to apologize for his conduct.
There is great deal of quiet work being
done for Hill and Stevenson and it will
snow IOFIG AZ JDe TlknJ Jlnles some OF
the Illinois Democratic leaders express
the opinion that the delegation from
that State can be controlled for Hill and
Stevenson, but. of course, Gen.
Stevenson must be very cIrcumspect as to
any countena he gives movement in
volving the booming of Hill. Friends
and admirers of Gen. Stevenson have de-
clared their preference for him as the
candidate tor Vice President in 1888. His
usual reply has been that he was not a
can idats, but that any evidence of the
confidence of the Democratic party would
be gratifying.
The boomers of Hill and Stevenson are
q little apprehensive about approaching
the latter. They fear that he might siI
down on this movement; that he might
say that while serving under the present
| admins tration he would not be willing
to assent TO anything that wou Id antago-
nize the Presidents aims and ambition
Still, the anti civil service Democrats be.
lieve the ticket to be a winning one, and
they mean to boom it with all the vim

of the Army were first begun MIR. and
Mrs. Wimberly aTm-in-srm attended the
exercises. Instantly Mrs. Wimberly
seems to have been infatuated with the

W Imberly maintains that it is not right
for any body, under the gu5e of religion,
or any other guise, to use influence to
separate man and wife. His wife has
made preparations to leave he city dur

MIR. Wimberly has demonstrated with

SEVEN MILES FROM EARTH.

Congressman Springer in Boston.

FROM he Washington Post.
They seem 10 have had some fun and a
good deal OF sense up at the Bay State
CLUB 10 Boston. Congressman Springer
referred humorously TO the boast made
not many years ago by bob" loom bs
that he would live TO call the roll OF his
slaves from the base OF the Bunker Hill
monument. "NOw," said Mr.. Springer,
"a colored Mugwump from the base OF
Bunker Hill monument il recording deeds
in the District OF Columbia and enjoying
the biggest salary at the disposal OF a
Democratic President" This sally was
received with a roar OF applause and
laughter.
In regard TO reducing the revenue, Mr..
Springer admitted that Congress had not
done It's duty. "But the difficulties in the
way" he said, "must be considered.
Among these difficulties is the enormous
amount OF business before Congress,
$4,000 bills having been introduced in the
last session. Then there Is the fear that
reduction OF the revenue may disturb in-
dustries; but after next july the surplus
may be applied 70 the purchase OF bonds.
